I guess that is the price for cramming a large engine in a small car.

The pedals are offset to the left slightly in all SPF and CSX Cobras that I've ever seen due to the transmission tunnel, as were the originals. I suppose it might be possible that Backdraft or others have compensated for that. I never noticed it (at least to the degree of making me uncomfortable) when driving it.
The bigger thing is the cramped quarters. Big feet with big shoes don't fit well. I drove mine with sneakers almost all of the time. I never got into the specialized driving shoes.
The other thing is that the horizontal pedal offset of the brake to accelerator make heel-toe throttle blip/braking difficult if not impossible for most people. That's just the way they are!
